As the story goes on and the creators art style gets smoother and more experienced,it seems that Nobuhiro-san's art style has gwon a tad similar to the creator of [One Piece](More outrageous and 'daring').

If i remember correctly Oda Eiichiro worked as assitant for Nobuhiro Watsuki.
and i think kenshin was created before one piece.
but one piece is crazy and its been my favorite manga for a long time

I do find it funny that Kaoru seems to be absent in the "favorite characters" list.

Really? The list just mentioned is of the "favorite villains" in the series. If I remeber correctly, Kaoru was fairly high up there.

I've taken a brief hiatus from the Ruroken manga (for some Shingetsutan Tsukihime action!) But I've stopped near the beginning of the Kyoto Arc, after Kenshin's dealt with the broom-headed guy.
Btw, is Seta Soujiro supposed to be Shishio's little messenger or is it Seito Hajime? If it's neither, don't tell me who the other two are, I probably haven't read that far yet.

For some reason, tho, it looks like Shishio's quite attractive to men too. lol

Spoiler:

Soujiro runs around him like a little dog and Kamatari literally has a thing going for him...

My only gripe so far is Honjou Kamatari.

Spoiler:

Kamatari has such a kick-ass weapon (extended scythe and chain) and at the same has such a cool personality... But he's a transvestite!!! And his character design was so cute too... If he was a girl, I'd be in love...

1.He did?wow,cool.(*No wonder i picked up a little bit of info that Nobuhiro-sensei reads One Piece as well*)
2.I'm not implying that Nobuhiro-sensei is trying to 'impersonate' Oda-sensei,plz don't misunderstand!

I am confused some what as to why Sagara Sanosuke is based on the 10th captain of the Shinsengumi Harada Sanosuke. He fought for the Tokugawa regime yet Sanosuke in the manga is clearly on the side of the Meiji government in the group of the Sekihotai.

I am confused why is Sanosuke based on a member of the opposite side to the one he is in?

Do you know his back story and have you read the whole manga? Because when he first appears he wants to defeat kenshin and then later tries to destroy some government building when he bumps into an old friend.

I am on Volume 2, two chapters in, will all be revealed then? I assumed Sagara Sanosuke is a good guy as he was in the Sekihotai which fought for the Meiji government in real life.

I cannot find a link between Harada Sanosuke (Sagara) and the real life Sekihotai who Sagara Sozo from the manga was supposed to be captain of. This is why i am confused. If they are both shown as they were part of Sekihotai in the manga why is Sanosuke based on someone from the Shinsengumi? I don't see the link.

I didn't like the manga, for some reason I just couldn't get into it and found it pretty boring. The art is rather well done though, the story was just not my cup of tea really. I thought I would enjoy it especially after seeing Samurai X and looking into Kenshin's past but the manga doesn't compare to the story of his past.

Or isn't there supposed to be a direct link between these two in their real life counterparts?

Hey boyz, quick question. I've watched the whole anime plus all the ova's, but are you guyz talking bout the manga which the anime already translated to film or is the manga continuing after the anime? Which I cannot imagine....
